Computational Simulation of Droplets Wetting on Micro and Nano Filaments
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
In this thesis, wetting properties of liquid droplets on micro and nano filaments were
explored. First, droplet-on-filament systems were considered, made of liquid droplets and
wetting between parallel filaments of ...
Resource and Bandwidth Allocation in Hybrid Wireless Mobile Networks
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
In the lead up to the implementation of 802.16 and 4G wireless networks,
there have been many proposals for addition of multi-hop MANET zones or relay
stations in order to cut the cost of building a new backbone ...
Causes of Construction Delays for High Rise Buildings: a Quantitative Comparison between the USA and India
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
High rise buildings are complex, high risk, and multi-contractor projects which
make them prone to construction delays. Delays can lead to time overrun, affect the total
project duration and the total cost, and could ...
eTablaTutor - The Electronic Tabla Leaming Game
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
Tabla is a percussion instrument widely used in Indian classical music both as a
solo instrument and as an accompaniment to vocal or instrumental music. Learning Tabla,
like learning any musical instrument, is very much ...
Optimization of Mobile Sensor Movement in Self-Healing Sensor Networks
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
This paper moves forward the key idea as proposed in past research works
- a self-healing deployment approach for sensor networks, where a small
percentage of mobile sensors are deployed along with the static sensors
into ...
Teaching Encryption: A Learning Theory Approach
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
Bloom's taxonomy for cognitive domain is an effective taxonomy for structured
learning. The six levels in Bloom's taxonomy for cognitive domain are based on the levels
of difficulty. This paper focuses on teaching ...
Parametric Investigation of a Dielectric Barrier Dishcarge Plasma Actuator
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
The dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuator is considered an effective
flow control device in various aerospace applications such as drag control, lift control, and
stall control. The DBD plasma actuator has ...
Experimental Characterization of a Novel Integrated Flow Control Method
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
Flow control methods can be used in many areas of aerodynamics such as
separation control, wind turbines, landing gears and micro satellites. Flow separation in
the boundary layer is one of the fundamental problems of ...
Influence of Active Site Ligands and Nanoparticle Surfaces on Human Carbonic Anhydrase Isozymes
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is an ubiquitously distributed zinc containing metallo
enzyme that catalyzes the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide to form bicarbonate and a
proton. Existence of 16 isoenzymes of CA in the ...
Studies on the Population Biology of Colletotrichum coccodes Using AFLP and SCAR Markers
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
Black dot is a blemish disease of potato caused by the fungus Colletotrichum coccodes
(Wallr.) Hughes. with worldwide distribution. It occurs in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe,
North America, South America, and Central ...
